AIM Sniff is a utility for monitoring and archiving AOL Instant Messenger messages across a network. You can either do a live dump (actively sniff the network) or read a PCAP file and parse the file for IM messages. You also have the option of dumping the information to a MySQL database, a flat file, STDOUT, or any combination of the three.

Can anyone suggest any to make this site better? I'm open to any ideas that could help this site grow, 50 unique viewers a day isn't enough. Well if anyone you have any ideas, head over to the forums(register if possible) and post away. Feel free to post anything else as well cuz the forums are pretty dead. I think I'm gonna link all my posted videos in one single post and add to it as more come so it's easier to find them and I'll make a link to it on the left side of the page as well.

If you've yet to download the new family guy here's a direct link to a real media version. Download it!!!(right click and choose 'save as' for best results)

Play guess-the-google, you have to view a group of googled pics and guess the keyword that brought them up. Try to beat my score(only played once) of 345. Post your scores in the forum or in the comments section.

FREE NBA TV... From the website, "And be sure to check out the FREE PREVIEW of NBA TV from April 23 - May 6 so you can catch everything NBA TV has to offer! Call your local cable or satellite provider for more details."

AOL releases beta of Triton, said to replace AIM. It adds tabbed windows and logging but seems rather bulky.

Here's two cool 'hacks' I came across today. The first shows you how to turn a silver dollar(or quarter) into a ring. The second shows how to make a simple FM radio jammer. I dont fully understand the radio jammer instuctions so if anyone can futher explain, please do.

News - 10 years ago, Congress targeted the end of 2006 to end all analog tv signals which would result in over 70million TV sets using antennas to stop working unless a special box is bought. Looks like 2006 will be here too fast.

News? - "Sadhana TV in India is offering the wisdom of a panel of 40 gurus by SMS text messaging."

News - Microsoft and Samsung team up to produce a Hybrid Hard Drive which uses a flash memory buffer. Microsoft wants this drive to be used when Longhorn comes out... looks interesting.

News - I forgot to post this last week. A professor at Berkeley tried to scare a laptop thief into giving it back. News and audio on that can be found here. It's a really funny clip and if you know anything about computers, you can tell he's lying out of his teeth. An *UPDATE* to this story can be found here. Apparently the thief wasn't fooled by his professors tricks.

News - Nintendo has finally confirmed that it will unveil the new Revolution at E3 this year.

Podcast - Leo has posted another update to the ROTSS(I don't think they can use 'Screen Savers' anymore) podcast with Leo Laporte, Patrick Norton, and Kevin Rose. The file can be downloaded here. If possible, use the bittorrent link to save their bandwidth.

Staples has an online game which gives you a '$10 off $20' coupon. Staples is having a sale on a 50 pack of dvd-r's for 17.94... add a $2 pen to reach $20 then use the $10 off coupon. $10 for 50 dvd-r's is an amazing deal!!

Leo Laporte has started a podcast with Patrick Norton, Kevin Rose and Robert Heron. I had a listen and it was great 'catching up' with these guys. Download the podcast here.

I kept checking back to see if this page was updated yet, then realized thats my job ;)... so here are today's random findings. Updates will come throughout the day... so check back!

According to this report, black holes do not and can not exist. hmm, how bout that...

Yahoo has a video search. It's been out for some time, but I think a lot of people just don't know about it. It works just like Google's image search would find pics, but instead videos... it's a nice tool to have.

Wow.. Google also has a video search, but google's site indexes closed captioning from the programs... so you can find what you want by what happens in the program, not just how its named. Google has just started collecting peoples personal videos.

Ask Morris is a website with some random guy answering peoples questions in life... I don't agree with a lot he has to say.. but it's all entertaining. If you're bored(and you must be if you're here) then give it a look.

Well looky here... my pocket pc has the best screen(first picture under psp). I win :)

Google has improved google maps. You can now zoom in anywhere you want.

Win a FREE PSP. Just join this newsletter and you're entered. It's a good newsletter anyway... shows great deals on all types of items.

Here's a thread showing you how to play a multiplayer psp games with just one game. Another great PSP hack.

Verizon DOUBLES DSL speeds! As the article states.. you if you are a current subscriber, you must call and ask for the upgrade so make sure you do!! ** There is infact a little catch, which will require you to stay with Verizon DSL for another full year.**

Wow this is so cool. It's a SD card with built in usb connectivity. Buy me one!!

No-Install.com is a site showing programs that do not have to be installed.. so you could run them off a USB thumb drive or a CD. Finally another great reason to own a thumb drive.

WOOOOOOOO... Dream Theater has just announced it's U.S. tour and it looks to be a good one. Also on the tour will be Megadeth, Fear Factory, Dillinger Escape Plan, and Nevermore. Tickets also seem pretty cheap for a show like this... can't wait.

So it's 7:15am and im wide awake. I'm an idiot(duh) and took some crazy energy pills last night and now I'm paying for it. Now I'm trying to sort through all of yesterday's April 1st scams/jokes/lies not knowing what to believe. I guess it's random post time. This will be updated throughout the day, so be sure to check back...

oh yeah... try and show people this site, I'd like to get more hits. I'm only getting 30 or so per day which is quite sad. thanks

I guess for starters I'll post a site showing "all" the sites that pulled April Fool's jokes.

This week's South Park features the new PSP!! You may not care, but this is fun news to me. If you're interested in seeing this episode, you can download it here.(this is a torrent file and in order for it to work, you need BitTorrent. If you do not have bittorrent #1 you lose and #2 you can download it here. Torrents are a great way to download new and old music, movies, tv shows and anything else you can think of.. I highly suggest trying it out. More torrents at torrentspy.com)*UPDATE*i just watched this episode and its hilarious... there's also a terri schiavo reference.
